looking for my first 405

[jost4318]

Hi I'm kinda new to the forum and I was wondering where I could buy a good quality 405 that outputs between 300 and 500mW

O-like and rayfoss are the quick answers. Get some safety glasses! blu-ray looks dim but burns like crazy

like Drew said O-like and Rayfoss are good companies to my knowledge. i have been looking into Dragon Lasers also but dont know much about them, i would say Wicked Lasers. their hosts are beautiful and my E3 100mw 405nm is fantastic and well over spec. ... but they are unreliable and their customer service is well.........terrible. good luck in your hunt sir.

yeah already ahead of you on the glasses my o-like ones protect from 380-560nm so i dont have to worry too much about that. I did see the ones on rayfoss however i've seen a few bad reviews popping up on here lately about them and honestly i'm just pissed that o-like got rid of their 400mW torch

If you're disliking the manufacturers, build your own. Buy a laser sled... like a BDR-SO6J or SF-BW512. Learn about electricity and make your laser your very own.

If you have the T-REX goggles from O-Like, I think you have to worry about that, because this goggles are worst.

I advise you to buy other, more if you want a 405nm, so powerful.
